An analysis of Jade's trailer because my religious trauma can be useful now

Snake in biblical context-

 Overall snakes can mean many things, from death and the underworld but here well focus on snakes in abrahamic, specifically christian tradition. The serpent in the garden of eden which is the one who tempted Eve into eating the forbidden fruit. 

In this way we see a few key elements of Jade’s characterization come to light- She is partners with her snake, who consumes and devours enemies, her stoneheart ability is to see desires. She focuses on providing temptation to others. Another aspect we see is an emphasis on patience- which is an aspect also reflected in the story- Eve lacked patience and consumed the fruit, while Jade provide temptation with all the patience in the universe. 

We can also see some of this reflected in the depiction of Lilith which at times has been depicted as a demon or beast of the desert, and in early 5th century translations of the bible is depicted as lamia- generally depicted as monstrou half snake half women (or hot if you're into that).

We’ll go into more of the snake symbolism later.

Let''s talk about the table.

When we return to Judaeo-christian references we have Jade sitting front and center- with exactly 12 empty spots. Remember the trailer is her chasing after someone who gave into temptations and betrayed the IPC. She is chasing information on a betrayal similar to a very famous betrayal that took place after a dinner that famously held 12  seats with one in the center… 

Interestingly enough in this moment Jade decides to add that a ‘will’ can also bring death- Those who betray their ideals/morals bring a certain death upon themselves or others, similar to how Judas Iscariot’s betrayal brought death upon jesus and persecution to his followers. 

As she says this she has another 12 people bowing to her.

Next we see  the IPC worker stung up- another judeo christian reference- and this one much more direct. Jesus on the cross, but what part does Jade play in this story- We have seen her sit centre stage during the last supper, and now she approaches the cross, pulling the IPC worker down. 

She then chastizes the IPC worker- calling him a naughty child and asking him to tell her where ‘they’ are. 

When we look back at the religious Symbolism we already have we cna pretty easily see the parallels between her and temptation. She was centered in the betrayal, and now she is the cause of their persecution- Giving into temptation, to desire gives her power. 

Finally we see her fully- as one of the Ten stonehearts with her whip out.

She embodies the power of the snake itself, her whip covered in thorns. While we  famously have the religious imagery of the crown of thorns we can also take it as a measure of how thorns and temptation can dig under one’s skin pulling everything else with it- We are also brought back to biblical imagery related to the garden of Eden  where the first curse brought upon mankind as a result of Adam’s ‘sin’ is the presence of “thorns and thistles” 

At thisi time we also see the first instance of the color red permeating through the background. 

At this time we also see the first instance of the color red permeating through the background. 

We then get the first instance of a clear reference to Sin:

Superbia- or Pride. We also see the red snake descending on the right hand side. When we again look at biblical references we know that Lucifer, who later became a snake to tempt Adam and Eve- Fell to the sin of pride- causing him to rebel against the will of god and fall from heaven. 

Not only is the snake here associated with pride but it is descending front he top of the screen as the IPC worker falls to Jades attack. As he falls the snake opens its jaw to reveal red fangs and tongue. As jade walks forward ink seems to seep out of her every step as the IPC worker gives in and agrees to talk. 

We finally get to see Jade’s Symbol- 

And interesting adaptation of the Ouroboros Symbol we usually see. While we recognize the cymbals of infinity created by the Snakes body, unlike the usual Ouroboros, the snake has a beginning and an end, the mouth and tail are not connected. 

Within Honkai Star rail Lore we do know of Oroboros, the Aeon of Voracity.

They are described as the Drinker of Worlds- a being that is all consuming, in the eyes of Oroboros the Voracity life is a small fragment in the sea of Void, destined to return to Them. 

We can see here the idea of patience- All things eventually will be consumed by the Voracity- just as jade has the patience to wait for the outcome of her plans. We also know that in Dev Log1 in simulated universe we get a bit of an IPC cameo.  It specifically states “Had Louis Fleming encountered Oroboros the Voracity, he might have approached the Aeon with the intent to attract all wealth throughout the universe! Fortunately, Oroboros has vanished without a trace.” interesting that one of the founders of the IPC is brought up in the entry for the Voracity- an Aeo that can be ascribes to the sins of greed and gluttony.

Next in the video we see the IPC worker inside a grid or wreath of snakes, with a symbol in the center that resembles creatures that we as trailblazers have encountered

The Heliobi are essentially beings of energy that consume emotions. They are also noted to be part of a race of Extraneous Demons. The heliobus reference here is fascinating, as we know that not only do they consume emotions- but they trick their host into indulging in the actions that would trigger intense emotion such as binge eating or self harm, or even violence against others. 

Creatures that guide people to indulge in the same sins we are seeing presented in the trailer. Heliobi are also creatures of insatiable hunger. Specifically:

“No matter how many bodies it steals, its wish remains unfulfilled. Like those who seek the medicines of immortality, it craves an imperishable vessel, one that will rid it of its fear of destruction. And yet, it knows this is a dream that will never come true.” — Regret of Infinite Ochema

Heliobi are drawn to people that have intense desires- willing to more easily fall into temptation. 

After this we see jade state there is never just one as she is attacked quickly taking him down and giving us a glimpse of our next Sin:

Invidia- Envy. 

We also hear jade mention that while the quantity of those attacking her is high they lack the quality to defeat her. Each one of these members- fueled bu sin and desire- possibly envious of what higher ups had- gave into temptation, and in doing brought down Jade’s will, one that brings death. 

Her serpent is awakened and we finally see it in full force.

They bring upon themselves the Wrath of the serpent, a serpent surrounded by the word Gula- or gluttony. A serpent that will devour.

As the serpent attacks we see hands reach out to her seal in the center- as if reaching out for help and relief from the consequences of their indulgence into temptation.

As the IPC traitors fall to the floor we once again return to the crucifix as a symbol-

the IPC worker strung on the cross a victim to his own temptation and betrayal, a consequence of his Sin. 

We also get our next sin:

Acedia- or sloth. An IPC worker too lazy to work his way up, indulging in sin and suffering consequences. The narrative of the trailer becomes a clear story, and we have found our ‘culprit’

Jade stands before him

Surrounded by the serpents of his sins, and he falls. “Once a will is ignited, it will spark even more desires.”  We then see our last sin of the video Ira- Wrath.

Within Me Are Two (Vicious) Wolves

[ Trigger Warning - Self hatred; Sexual harassment. It's okay to believe people at face value when they say they love you. People care about you. Reader discretion advised. ]

I still can't believe we ran out of groceries before I even came home... It would have been nice to whip up my favorite melancholy chocolate, but we didn't even have coffee...

Annelie wanders through crowds of demons, trying to ignore the stares directed at her.

How is Lucifer even working right now? Is it my fault he couldn't even go out and get himself coffee? I know I told him to cut back a little but he's probably cranky without his coffee...

Annelie enters an open-air market and makes a beeline for the poison princess' apples. She picks up an entire half-bushel of them.

Seller: Woah there; are you sure you want to buy that many, missy- er, m'lady? The poison concentration's pretty high this year.

Annelie: That's what my husband likes about them.

She takes out her wallet as the seller softly laughs.

Seller: Well, I suppose we are talking about Lord Lucifer, so that was a stupid question. Half a bushel is 245 Grimm.

A few people near Annelie stir at the mention of Lucifer's name, and the seller's smile fades.

Demon 1: Lady Superbia?

Demon 2: It's Lucifer's blasted concubine.

Demon 3: Diavolo's tail, what's wrong with him? That's the woman he declared he was marrying?

I wonder that too.

Demon 1: What are you even talking about? She's pretty.

Demon 2: You're just saying that because you want to get laid. Though I guess I'd bang her too.

Demon 3: Ew.

Demon 1: No, no, I mean yes, but no? I want a little... lead-up first, know what I mean?

Demon 4: She can obviously hear you. Dumbasses.

Annelie clenches her fists and tries to quietly pay the apple seller before moving to her next location.

Demon 2: Well I don't care if she can hear me! She should take it as a compliment that even after she gold-dug her way to the top of the Devildom, the common folk still think anything positive about her!

Demon 3: O-Oi...

Annelie turns her head backwards by a few centimetres, and the sound of panting rises through the air as Simeon starts running towards the scene, a bag of coffee clutched in his hands.

Annelie: I didn't ask to come here.

Demon 2: Haaah? What was that, Princess?

Simeon: Annelie! Wait! Don't do anything rash!

Rash? I'm perfectly calm. All I see is trash that dares to insult my husband - to display hostility and disgusting desire towards me - to my face.

But what if I've deceived him? What if the person he loves is just a mask?

Annelie's face twists into an ugly expression.

So what? If it's a mask I've been wearing for the last 10 years, it might as well be me anyway. True self, fake self, who gives a damn?

What if he finds out?

Annelie: My husband does not make decisions lightly, so take your unwanted opinions elsewhere.

[simultaneous] Thoughts / Demon2: He deserves better than someone like you.

Simeon restrains Annelie as her eyes flash, but it's to no avail as she darts away from him. As if blind, a path of carnage follows her feet while she tears away from the crowd, away from the main streets.

Simeon: Fudging duckdonkey.

[nugget-gender]

literally have an algebra test in less than 4 minutes. bUT. LOOKING AT THE NEW SEVEN DEADLY SINS OCS. LOOKING WITH MY BIG OL EYES > >

OKAY HI i actually have an order for them(its the order they joined the guild in ^_^ i love mmorpg setting). names will be in-game ones i havent decided on real ones yet. none of them have met in real life so it doesnt matter all that much.

1. Pride

Name is Luxsol Superbia. Very pretentious and leans into the roleplay. Guild founder and leader. Her race is Manavoid Nephilim [C] and her class is Magebane Inquisitor, with a profession of Inspiring Guildmaster. I'm gonna give her sun imagery once i figure out how to draw. Signature Skill: Anti-Magic Decree

2. Sloth

Name is Eragon Baggins. He can't be assed to come up with his own name, hence the obviously ripped off ones. Annoys the hell out of Luxsol by not engaging with roleplay very much, if at all. Race is Rot Lich [C] and class is Festering Rotlord, profession is Necrotic Architect. Imagery for him is gonna be stone and spirals. Signature Skill: Domain of Rot

3. Wrath

Her name is Gideon Bigdick. Very competitive, and also less engaged with roleplay. She plays as a Primal Rune Elf [C] with a class of Elemental Stormfist and a profession of Expert Glassblower. Imagery for her would be lots of fire and thunder. Signature Skill: Wrath of the Storm

4. Gluttony

Plays Karsel Voidmaw, the least human character. Frequently holes up in their laboratory doing alchemy shit, but will do roleplay when they remember. Race is Prismscale Lizardfolk [C] and class is Master Alchemist of Voracious Ambition, lacking a profession as it fused with their class. Their themes would be lots of intoxication and blood, both literally and metaphorically. Signature Skill: Voracity

5. Lust

Elesya Sanguine plays the role of Lust in the Lucifer guild, often found seducing unwitting players and then using their bodies as material for constructs. Her race is Human Bloodthirster [C] as a Profane Fleshwarper, her profession being Luxurious Provocateur. Her main thematic element is grasping hands, with minor cannibalism as well. Signature Skill: Self-transformation

6. Greed

Drake Silver is the guild merchant and taskmaster of the lower members. He is one of the big reasons Lucifer is considered an evil guild, since while most of them have edgy races and classes, he engages in copious amounts of NPC slavery. Race is Dragonkin Orc [C] and class is Avaritious Soulmaster, having the Slaver Baron profession. Massive chain imagery here, as well as some precious metals by dint of being Greed. Signature Skill: Binder of Souls

7. Envy

Because of course I made Envy the last one. Jason Dark, team infiltrator and intel gatherer. Kind of a dick, in the "it's what my character would do" way. Insidious Devilspawn [C] and Psy-Mage Infiltrator, class of Accursed Trapper. I gave this one some nice frost and shadow imagery, which definitely goes with the sneaking. Signature Skill: Psionic Mana Shroud

Extra:

The Lucifer guild is newer in popular MMORPG SHIFT/DREAM, but already infamous. From the guildmaster allegedly being the ex-girlfriend of the game's lead developer to the generally unsavory playstyle of many of the guild's players, there really is a lot to complain about. However, complaints are likely to be met with a "git gud scrub" from their most Slothful member.

SHIFT/DREAM was popularized for its machine learning integrated into all parts of progression, allowing the player to truly shape their experience. Differences in playstyle will allow for new and different classes, races, professions, skills, items, and even creatures. Of course, it all starts at character creation. For classes, you choose from one of three archetypes, and from there you choose a sub-option. The Heavy Warrior archetype can become Guardian, Berserker, or Fighter, with the Light Warrior branching into Archer, Rogue, and Monk. Then there's magical options, with Caster branching into Evoker, Healer, and Enchanter. Race is chosen from a large array, from simple Humans to fantasy Elves and Goblins, as well as more exotic options such as Lizardfolk or Nephilim. Finally, the game has a system for Professions, which are gained during gameplay depending on the path the player takes. Often they involve crafting, but many are social in nature.

tho8ghts on darrow and lysanders ☆stagenames☆

darrow is MORNING STAR

lysander is LIGHT BRINGER

those warsonas are also 2 aliases of LUCIFER. eh lucifer morningstar, lucifer the lightbringer etc etc.

so what kind of parallel does this create?

darrow and lysander as... two sides of the same coin ( ?

.. different incarnations of the devil? they sure are war criming enough for that symbolism

.. their fall from grace? tbh darrow crawled out of the gutter more iconically and more often. lysander just had his desert moment thats not lucifer fall from heaven-material but lets wait for red god (and hope he stays in the gutter(

.. their corruption from angel to devil? both started pretty innocently and had a character arc that turned pretty dark at one point

... their hubris? (/superbia, pride) lucifer wanted to be god, both darrow and lyly have some pretty strong hubris ngl lysander "I'm the slave shepherd" lune and darrow "the kingdom of death has only one king" of lykos both strong contenders and yes light resistance bringer is more delusional but reaper had 10yrs war experience and still sailed on mercury

... kings of hell? darrow has some pretty strong hellfire aesthetic going on with being raised under the earth, literally being a helldiver, lots of red vibes (mars & his colour), themes of heat/pain etc etc. lysander burning the garter, surviving the ladon and claiming eidmi also has a growing king of hell vibe.

..rebirth? darrow from red to gold to morningstar, lysander from lune to nobody to lightbringer?

many possibilitiesss.

PREDICTIONSs!!!: what can this symbolism mean for red God?

Venus will play a central role, main battle will be there - cause venus is the morning star aka light bringer aka lucifer

lysander will have his fall from heaven but wont reemerge cause he has no friends parallel to golden son/morningstar arc

hubris will be a theme like come on the book is called red god?? darrow will be torn between his unlocked wise path and his need for speed

Chapter update & Poll

So, apologies but I am running far behind on the current chapter. I know I usually try to post every 10 days or so, but I've been slacking off this week. The chapter is currently at about 3k, which is about 1/4th of where I want it to be. So, even if I buckle down, it's gonna be a few more days at least. Big sorry.

That being said, the fic is at 18.7k hits, which is crazy to me. I've previously floated the idea of doing something special at 20k, so I figured it's about time to ask you guys what you want. Got some options on the table that I can start cooking up after I finish the current chapter:

- Full breakdown of my theories regarding Carmilla and Velvette: this is a little side project I pick at now and then and have jokingly floated as a 20k special before. Planned to be highly detailed with visual aids both from the show and some bits of original illustration for fun. Primarily regarding my thoughts on whether or not I can prove Carmilla might be an angel and Velvette might be her daughter.

- More Art: what it says on the tin, I take a break from writing and gaming to focus on getting more art done a lot faster. I'm already working on several sketches of the girls and my redesign of Zestial but I've got plenty more to do. My versions of Lucifer, Sera, Emily, Sir Pentious, maybe even start working on the Sins. Original characters like Glory and Kitty, possibly some alternate character arts like Charlie and Alastor's demon forms. I still plan to do this all eventually, this option just gets some of it faster.

- Superbia, Invidia, Ira: alternatively, Falling together or some other titles I have decided on. because the idea has been brought up a handful of times in comments and asks, I have put some thoughts towards an alternate version of the story where Lute saves Vaggie instead of betraying her and they get cast to Hell together. I could, in theory, write a one shot on it. At least 15-20k+ words. I will warn you guys that this would be a one shot and while it does have full series potential, I wouldn't touch it again until PEW is over which could take many months, if not longer. So, a one shot that I may or may not return to in the far future, just making sure you understand the expectations.

So yeah, vote below.

Finally cleaned up these guys. Still dunno if they're gonna be relevant to anything, but I like me my funny colored animals, so :3

They all use any/all pronouns, they're ageless genderless demons they don't give a damn

[likeadog]

what r demons like in sister virtue's story...............

YIPPIEEE Ok i can give you a fast n loose rundown bc admittedly im still working things out but

demons (and hell as a whole, and all things Diabolic) are a vital part of the theological ecosystem. their difference from angels comes in their passion; both are creatures born out of passion, but angels turn their passion outwards towards God, and demons turn their passion inwards towards themselves. Angels may be divine order incarnate, but they're also detached from individual needs and lose nuance, or spend decades arguing sides on the big picture. Demons represent the other half of what humans need-- a healthy bit of chaos, temptation, self indulgence, etc. And, naturally, the same way an extreme celestial leaning can be bad, the same goes for things like sin. All things in moderation, as it goes.

Hell is ruled by 7 princes in 7 layers, SALIGIA (Superbia, Acedia, Luxuria, Ira, Gula, Invidia, Avaricia aka the deadly sins), which are reborn into different Incarnations (or new lives), but retain a general stream of memories across them. Most of the circles have a rather corporate structure to them, but it depends heavily. Demons are also much more likely to be ambassadors to the mortal realm and/or just be there for shits and giggles.

All demons have horns and a tail, and typically take on features correlating with the native element and animal of their circle. The only exception is Pride/Lucifer, who lacks horns due to the fact his original iteration was a fallen angel. He is also the only one who remembers God, and is the de-facto leader of the Princes, followed by the two other Sins of the Spirit [Envy and Wrath], and then by the remaining four.

There's also Limbo, which is lead by the Archduke King Minos, who also experiences iterations. He has a three headed dog named Cerberus, and is the one who gifted Pluto his hellgate ability as a proposal gift. Limbo is more of a ... fae-realm esque situation.

All beings and "magic" in this theological structure run on belief. It's not so much things like the cross or prayers themselves that expel demons, but rather the faith a person has in their ability to do so.

Qui aurait pu m'expliquer alors qu'une pareille fringale de sucreries a été le levier de la sombre histoire de notre civilisation, que c'est elle qui a poussé à l'usure, à la création des manufactures, à la conquête de l'Amérique, à l'asservissement des paysans en Pologne, elle qui a donné aux pieux bourgeois d'Amsterdam l'idée de génie d'utiliser leurs bateaux pour le commerce des esclaves.

1. Pycha, la vanité, pour superbia. Vent, venteux, vain ? Un vaniteux joufflu ? On s’enfle plus que de raison ? C’est quelqu’un d’autre, un seigneur, certainement pas moi – impossible, donc, d’appliquer ce défaut à sa propre personne. La vanité, par sa sonorité même, est immédiatement classée ; en revanche, superbia, caractéristique de Lucifer, comporte en outre des traits graves, de même que…

[genderfluiddipshit]

hey i just noticed the latin in this:

Princeps gloriossime caelestis militiae, Sancte Michael Archangele. [The most glorious prince of the heavenly host, Saint Michael the Archangel.] Proeliare hodie dum beat orum angel orum exercitu proelia domini, sicut pugnasti contra ducem superbiae, Luciferum, et angelos eius apostaticos. [Fight today while the angels are blessed with the Lord's army, just as you fought against the leader of pride, Lucifer, and his apostate angels.] Et non valuerunt, neque locus inventus est eorum amplius in coelo. [And they were not strong, nor was their place found any more in heaven.]

Hopefully that's some form of right, and i hope i punctuated and ordered it correctly :3 i am no latin expert, i used google translate, i was just curious as to the general meaning of it ^^

lucifer saw the leviathan, and grieved.

Dear Hospital, I Do Believe I Am Ill.

[ Trigger Warning: Discussion of suicide, self-harm. Don't be afraid of professional help. People care about you. ]

Annelie: I can't believe our honeymoon is already over...

Lucifer: It's a bit unfortunate, isn't it?

Lucifer and Annelie sigh a little together as they finish their breakfast in the Demon Lord's castle.

Lucifer: Well, we can go on another vacation later; it's not as if last week was the only week I'll ever have free time for.

Annelie: I know, but I'm just not looking forward to this call...

Lucifer: You'll be fine. It's not as if you've never been seen by a Devildom doctor before.

That's not why I'm dreading it, unfortunately.

Annelie: Are you sure I can't just call my family doctor?

Lucifer: Do you think they're going to know if you have a magical disorder?

Annelie: ...well, no...

Lucifer: Then call the number I gave you, okay? Simeon also said it would probably be a good idea.

That doesn't necessarily make me feel better, considering how angry he was with me when I told him about my homicidal thoughts...

Lucifer kisses Annelie's forehead.

Lucifer: I need to get to my meeting, but you can always reach me, okay? And don't hesitate to call me, you moron.

He cuffs her ear, and she swats back at his hand before they smile at each other, and Lucifer departs. Annelie glances down at her D.D.D. before she calls the number he referred her too.

Hospital worker: Hello; you've reached Asclepius Medical. If this an emergency call, please hang up and immediately call 444 to have paramedics at your door within seconds. How may I help you today?

Annelie: Um, I guess this is just kind of a... consultation call? Is... Is this the right place to ask about mental health?

Hospital worker: That is correct. What concern do you have?

Annelie: Uh, well... I was just wondering if I should... be seen by someone. Sorry, er, I've been having some... suicidal thoughts lately, and sometimes I don't even know why...

Hospital worker: Have you ever intentionally hurt yourself, such as through cutting or burning?

Annelie: Er, no...

Hospital worker: How frequent would you say these thoughts occur to you?

Annelie: It's... It's not that frequent... I would say I only had one really bad episode... Sorry if this is a bother.

Hospital worker: Not at all. Calls such as this are not unusual. Do you think you can keep yourself safe?

Annelie hesitates for a long, uncomfortable few seconds.

No, I can't keep myself safe. I think... I think if we'd had something sharp while Lucifer was ignoring me-

Annelie gets choked up.

No, I wouldn't really... I wouldn't, right?

Annelie: I-I... I don't know. I-I don't think I...

Hospital worker: Well, just to be on the safe side, we always tell clients who are unsure to come in. What's your name, ma'am?

Annelie: Annelie. Annelie Superbia.

The hospital worker pauses for a moment.

Hospital worker: ...I see. I suppose I don't need to ask about your insurance. Are you familiar with our address, Lady Superbia?

Oh... I guess everyone knows my last name now, don't they?

Annelie: ...yeah. Do you need me to come to a specific wing or...?

Hospital worker: Anywhere will be fine; just give your name, and someone will attend to you.

Annelie: Er... admitted?

Is that really necessary?

Nurse: It is completely your choice, my lady.

I am never going to get used to that.

Nurse: While you do not currently present a clear and present danger to yourself or others, we usually recommend that patients with your symptoms stay in the hospital for a few days.

Annelie: You don't think that's... excessive?

Nurse: It very well may be, it's true; however, based on the answers you gave to Dr. Lildee, admission to the hospital's behavioral unit is our recommendation. But this is all precautionary; you are perfectly at liberty to refuse treatment.

Annelie hesitates.

Maybe... maybe this'll help me. They're pros.

Annelie: No, I'll... I'll do it.

So that (he won't) I don't hurt him (hate me) again.
